Instead of looking to the future and embracing cleaner, renewable energy options – that are also less expensive – Donald Trump and Republicans are taking us backward by giving polluters another massive giveaway. Here in Minnesota, we’re leading the way toward 100% carbon-free electricity by 2040, and DFLers are working to lower energy costs and protect our planet for generations to come.

We will never forget.

Thank you Governor Walz! The Boundary Waters are an extraordinary national treasure and worth protecting.

Today, our statewide child care tour took me to Li'l Lumberjacks Learning Center in Cloquet. We heard about the need for sustainable wages and benefits for child care workers, along with affordable, high-quality care for Minnesota families.

Child care providers are the workforce behind the workforce, and they need our support at the Capitol to keep doing this essential work. We have work to do, and we need to stand with providers to make sure families and child care workers can thrive.

BREAKING: Elon Musk’s AI company is suing to stop our ban on AI ‘nudification’ technology.

They’re opposing a law that would prevent AI from generating explicit images of children. This deepfake technology has already resulted in a *26,000%* increase in child sexual abuse materials online.

Why does Elon Musk think that should be legal?

GREAT NEWS: Minnesota has seen a massive drop in catalytic converter thefts since 2023, when DFLers wrote and passed legislation to crack down on the crime and make it much harder to sell the stolen car parts that can cost victims thousands of dollars to replace.

Police across the Twin Cities Metro have reported drastic decreases in the crime since the law took effect.

Too many parents are stretched thin by the high cost of child care, and too many early educators aren't paid what they deserve to ensure their own families can afford their lives.

I visited Main Square Montessori in Winona to hear directly from parents about their experiences. Affordable child care is essential for families, local economies, and our communities, and I look forward to taking their ideas back to the State Capitol.

Every day, DFLers are working at the Capitol to lower costs for Minnesotans - even when it means standing up to corporate lobbyists, health insurance companies and Big Pharma.

You deserve healthcare, childcare, housing, energy, and groceries you can afford.
